I met a little gal in the state of Arkansas
                D7
Her name it was Mirandy
G
I wanted her love so I asked her pa
        D7                         G
He said tell her lies and feed her candy
D7                         G
Tell her lies and feed her candy

D7              G
My oh my if the apple of your eye
      D7                      G
Don't think you're a real gem dandy
        C                    G
Take my advice and put it on ice boys
D7                         G
Tell her lies and feed her candy
D7                         G
Tell her lies and feed her candy


You can take her out for the time of her life
                       D7
Give her good Napoleon brandy
G
But you'll never gonna make that woman your wife
           D7                         G
Unless you tell her lies and feed her candy
D7                         G
Tell her lies and feed her candy

Repeat #2


If the road of love is bumpy and rough
                       D7
And if your sugar gets sandy
G
You can bet your boots she'll strut her stuff
       D7                         G
You'll tell her lies and feed her candy
D7                         G
Tell her lies and feed her candy
